The earliest black holes in the universe may not have disappeared from Hawking radiation after all, new research hints.

Scientists say an ultra-powerful neutrino once thought impossible may be explained by an exotic black hole model involving a so-called “dark charge.” ...

If you've ever wondered what would actually happen if a microscopic black hole tunneled straight through your body, answers have finally arrived. And surprisingly, the damage would be pretty minor – ...

Black holes keep showing up in the news. Scientists have recorded the space ripples from their violent crashes and even captured the first images of their shadowed outlines at the centers of galaxies.

A neutrino slammed into Earth in 2023 with so much energy that it looked almost unreal. The particle carried about 220 ...

Physicists suggest that a single, extraordinarily powerful cosmic signal detected on Earth could be linked to the explosive end of a tiny black hole from the early universe. That signal now stands as ...

A neutrino with almost unimaginable energy slammed into Earth in early 2023, carrying roughly 220 petaelectronvolts, far beyond anything human machines can produce. The event, tagged KM3-230213A, has ...

A decade ago, the first gravitational waves confirmed that black holes collide. Telescopes soon revealed shadows of giants lurking at galaxy cores. The next frontier is stranger: tiny black holes from ...
